      I am divorced, but awaiting the property settlement. Then I will be free of my ex. Unphased by this experience, I remain optimistic about the future.

      I thoroughly enjoy getting out on my motorcycles - Ducati 999s and a MV Agusta Senna F4 1000. I am also learning to fly a helicopter. All part of my recovery plan.

      What a hard dark journey you've been trekking.... you are wise and courageous to reach out and give expression to the pain. Take strength from us if you can.

    • Good Luck

      Been there, done that. Check out my journal and my story in there. You will see that it is very similar. I am dong much better now. It takes time but you can make it through. Keep a clear head and take things a step at a time.

      Glad to hear your doing ok. Let me know how that no contact goes. I think your into wishful thinking there as long as you have kids together your going to have to see your ex from time to time when it involves the kids. I know its hard but you have to go back to a place where you and her where just friends like when you first met. It takes time and work to get the issues sorted out. In a couple of years you should be over her emotionally and can be more objective. At this point in my life I am actually invited to my ex's house for special occasions and can bring a date too. Our son together is our most important issue and we have put the past behind us. Its pretty good now. You may or may not want this kind of arrangement. I have to admit there are times when my son is the only one thought doing the communicating between us. And she still loves to talk in the background when I'm talking to him. Her manners and sense of decency where never up to my standards but love is blind and hindsight is 2020. I know you will be ok in time so don't get in a hurry and think and pray before you act if at all possible. Peace be unto you and God bless.

      hey merc, just got your message. I guess what i see is a woman scorned. I don't even know what that word means. I've heard the word hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. To me it just means revenge for hurting me. Its the only way a woman can retaliate within her moral code. Good thing she's not crazy or on drugs you could have a "fatal attraction" thing going here. If you haven't seen the movie check it out. It shows about the worst thing that can happen if you run into the wrong person who is unbalanced. Probably the best thing you could say is " I'm sorry for hurting you but I have to move on". Maybe one day she will actually here your sincerety and get the message. Women are so much smarter than us socially. She's just taking shots at you the only way she knows how. Prayer and centering yourself before you have to deal with her will help you I'm sure. It takes a long time to understand we are all alone in handling our lives when it comes to doing the work. No one can do it for us. You can also use some of her tactics. Parade some of your girlfriends in front of her. See how she reacts. When you no longer get angry then your over her. That may take a couple of years at least. I'm just coming up on 2 years in July on a lost love of my own. And I've just made some ground recently and feel so much better. Remember alls fare in love and war.
